As everyone knows, the best way to start a new Five is to head straight into madness in the heart of the jungle. At least that's what Austin and Eric think as they begin their Werner Herzog Five with Aguirre, the Wrath of God. It's the story of damned conquistadors who are searching for El Dorado. The film shows Herzog's impressive way of establishing a mood as well as the ability to doubt your own sanity. This film went over so well, one of the two called it one of the best films they've covered!
